Lead Character's Top Ten Glee Moments (Season One)

10. Jesse St. James's first appearance. When Jesse St. James (Jonathan Groff) first appeared, Lead Character gasped. He is a big fan of Spring Awakening, and seeing a Lea Michele and Jonathan Groff reunion made Lead Character burst into song, specifically "Touch Me". Now, how about a Duncan Sheik guest appearance in season two?


9. It's My Life/Confessions, Pt. 2 Mash-Up. There's no question that Glee introduced the concept of Mash-Up, and they started it well: the boys singing "It's My Life" (Jon Bon Jovi) and "Confessions, Pt. 2" (Usher). Of course, it's been done before, but not everyone knew it had a name. Lead Character didn't know it had a name. And now Mash-Ups are everyone's new way of singing in the bathroom. As of this morning, Lead Character's shower mash-up (and also while taking a dump) is "Killer Queen" (Queen) and "Killer Queen" (Travis).


8. Kurt comes out to his dad. We should have been spared from this cliché in television, but it's undeniable that this was still a touching scene. "I'd known since you were three. All you wanted for your birthday was a pair of sensible heels... I love you just as much." Aww.


7. Mr. Schue and Rachel sing "Endless Love". In what is probably the funniest first five minutes in any episode of Glee, Mr. Schue's overacting pays off.


6. Brittany teaches the group how to do a Hairography. "Just pretend you're being tasered." Classic! "It's like cool epilepsy." Classicker!


5. Artie's Safety Dance. Because Joss Whedon is a genius and he directed this episode. And Jollibee appears in the background, proof that the Glee kids are not in Lima, Ohio, but in California. Hee hee.


4. Idina Menzel and Lea Michele sing "I Dreamed a Dream". Here, I do not see them as Ms. Shelby and Rachel. I see them as Idina and Lea, power women in theater who can pull off such a touching scene through their voices. Also, Joss Whedon is a genius and he directed this episode.


3. The Glee members sing "Ride Wit Me". Live singing (correct me if I'm wrong), no lip syncing, pure fun. Glee should do all their numbers this way.




2. The football team dancing to "Single Ladies". Of course, Glee will always be remembered for having a football team dance to "Single Ladies". It's illogical, forced, corny, but this scene was probable the most talked about after the episode aired.


1. And of course, the best Glee moment is in the following video. This number just makes me want to jump in my seat and celebrate the love of our Almighty God.
